FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT : Deep Gaurav, Aviation Safety Engineer, New York ACO Branch, FAA, 1600 Stewart Avenue, Suite 410, Westbury, NY 11590; phone: (516) 228–7300; email: deep.gaurav@faa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Background The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain serial-numbered Viking Air Limited Model DHC–6–1, DHC–6– 100, DHC–6–200, DHC–6–300, and DHC–6–400 airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on February 7, 2022 (87 FR 6802). The NPRM was prompted by MCAI originated by Transport Canada, which is the aviation authority for Canada. Transport Canada has issued AD CF– 2020–45R1, dated April 16, 2021 (referred to after this as ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition on Viking Air Limited Model DHC–6 series 1, DHC–6 series 100, DHC–6 series 110, DHC–6 series 200, DHC–6 series 210, DHC–6 series 300, DHC–6 series 310, DHC–6 series 320, and DHC–6 series 400 airplanes, serial numbers 001 through 987. The MCAI states: There have been in-service reports of loose quadrants on the rudder pedal torque tube and signs of loose rivets or rivet joint wear, such as dark areas or streaks around the rivet heads and quadrant to torque tube interface. Viking Air Ltd. has determined that inadequate manufacturing tolerances may result in this condition. This defect, if not detected and corrected, could result in the affected parts deteriorating until the rivets fail, leading to loss of control of the rudder and possible loss of control of the aeroplane. To detect and correct this condition, [Transport Canada] AD CF–2020–45 mandated a one-time detailed inspection of the rudder pedal torque tube quadrant assembly, and rectification, as required, of the affected parts. Viking Air Ltd. had published Service Bulletin (SB) V6/0067, Revision NC, dated 16 July 2020, providing Accomplishment Instructions for the one-time detailed inspection for looseness of the affected parts. Since [Transport Canada] AD CF–2020–45 was issued, Viking Air Ltd. has introduced a new rudder pedal torque tube assembly in production that is not subject to the unsafe condition of this [Transport Canada] AD. As a result, Viking Air Ltd. has revised the SB V6/0067 at Revision A, dated 26 January 2021 (referred to as ‘‘the SB’’ in this [Transport Canada] AD) to update the aeroplane serial number applicability. This [Transport Canada] AD revision, CF– 2020–45R1, is issued to modify the aeroplane serial number applicability in accordance with the SB. You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at https:// www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA–2021– 0217. In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to require inspecting the rudder pedal torque tube quadrant for looseness and taking corrective action as necessary. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive Comments The FAA received one comment from the Airline Pilots Association, International (ALPA). ALPA supported the NPRM without change. Conclusion The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered the comment received, and determined that air safety requires adopting this AD as proposed. Accordingly, the FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. This AD is adopted as proposed in the NPRM. Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51 The FAA reviewed Viking DHC–6 Twin Otter Service Bulletin V6/0067, Revision A, dated January 26, 2021. This service information specifies procedures for inspecting the rudder pedal torque tube quadrant for looseness and performing a detailed visual inspection of the rudder torque tube assembly for signs of loose rivets or rivet joint wear. This service information is reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section. Other Related Service Information The FAA also reviewed Viking DHC– 6 Twin Otter Service Bulletin V6/0067, Revision NC, dated July 16, 2020. This service information specifies procedures for inspecting the rudder pedal torque tube quadrant for looseness and visually inspecting for signs of loose or smoking rivets. Differences Between This AD and the MCAI The MCAI applies to Viking Air Limited Model DHC–6 series 110, DHC– 6 series 210, DHC–6 series 310, and DHC–6 series 320 airplanes, and this AD would not because these models do not have an FAA type certificate. Transport Canada Models DHC–6 series 1, DHC– 6 series 100, DHC–6 series 200, DHC–6 series 300, and DHC–6 series 400 airplanes correspond to FAA Model DHC–6–1, DHC–6–100, DHC–6–200, DHC–6–300, and DHC–6–400 airplanes, respectively. Costs of Compliance The FAA estimates that this AD affects 33 airplanes of U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD: E STIMATED C OSTS Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per airplane Cost on U.S. operators Inspection ....................................... 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 Not Applicable ................................ $85 $2,805 The FAA estimates the following costs to replace the rudder pedal torque tube quadrant assembly based on the results of the inspection. The agency has no way of determining the number of airplanes that might need this replacement: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:22 May 18, 2022 Jkt 256001 PO 00000 Frm 00017 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\19MYR1.SGM 19MYR1 jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES1

Subtitle I, section 106, describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the Agency’s authority. The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General requirements. Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action. Regulatory Findings This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866, (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Background EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD 2021–0114, dated April 23, 2021 (EASA AD 2021– 0114), to address an unsafe condition for certain RRD RB211 Trent 875–17, 877–17, 884–17, 884B–17, 892–17, 892B–17, and 895–17 model turbofan engines. The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to RRD RB211 Trent 875–17, 877– 17, 884–17, 884B–17, 892–17, 892B–17, and 895–17 model turbofan engines. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on November 16, 2021 (86 FR 63319). The NPRM was prompted by findings during engine overhaul of corrosion on the LPC front case assembly caused by excessive movement between the Kevlar wrap and the fan case, which resulted in the anti- corrosion paint fretting away. In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to require the performance of all required actions within the compliance times specified in, and in accordance with EASA AD 2021–0114, except for any differences identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of this AD and except as discussed under ‘‘Differences Between this Proposed AD and the EASA AD.’’ The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. See EASA AD 2021–0114 for additional background information. Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive Comments The FAA received comments from three commenters. The commenters were American Airlines (American), The Boeing Company (Boeing), and Rolls-Royce plc (RR). The following presents the comments received on the NPRM and the FAA’s response to each comment. Request To Revise Applicability American requested that the FAA revise paragraph (c), Applicability, of this AD to replace ‘‘as identified in EASA AD 2021–0114’’ with ‘‘RB211 Trent 875–17, 877–17, 884–17, 884B– 17, 892–17, 892B–17 and 895–17 engines with Low Pressure (LP) Compressor front (fan) case assemblies having Part Number (P/N) FK33097, P/ N FK26850, P/N FK26853, P/N FK26915, P/N FK26692 or P/N FK28577.’’ American stated that certain engines identified in the EASA AD applicability section have already performed rework on the LPC front case assembly to provide additional corrosion protection using RR RB211 Trent 800 Series Propulsion Systems Service Bulletin (SB) RB.211–72–G634 VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:22 May 18, 2022 Jkt 256001 PO 00000 Frm 00019 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\19MYR1.SGM 19MYR1 jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES1
